About Shushanik
Shushanik Gasparyan is a BACP counsellor based in the United Kingdom with eight years of clinical experience. She works with adults on issues such as stress, anxiety, depression and anger. Sessions are offered in English and Armenian, and she accepts international clients.
Shushanik helps people talk through difficult feelings and life events. She draws on client-centred ideas to listen and reflect what matters to each person. She also uses narrative approaches to look at the stories people tell about themselves, and psychodynamic ideas to notice past patterns that keep repeating.
Her background includes work in agencies as a psychologist and projects with international organisations on child abuse. That experience contributes to her understanding of trauma, relationship problems and family-related concerns. She supports people coping with grief, intimacy-related issues, addictions and changes such as career transitions or parenting stress.
In a typical session she offers a steady, conversational approach. Conversations focus on what is troubling the person now and how past experiences might shape current reactions. Practical steps and new ways of talking about problems may be introduced when they suit the client.
People seeking help for anger can expect to explore triggers, patterns and the effects of anger on relationships and daily life. Sessions aim to increase awareness and develop manageable ways to respond to heated moments rather than promising quick fixes. To begin, prospective clients follow the site’s matching and booking process to schedule a first meeting.
How her approaches translate to online therapy
Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting what matters to the client. It helps when someone needs a calm conversational space to sort through feelings like anger, grief or frustration. Narrative Therapy looks at the stories people tell about their lives and helps reframe problems so they have less power over daily reactions. Psychodynamic ideas pay attention to past patterns and how they influence current responses, which can be useful for recurring anger or relationship difficulties.Finding the best approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss options with the client and decide together which methods suit the person’s goals and preferences. That collaborative process means techniques can shift as understanding deepens and needs change.
Session formats are not specified in the biography, so please confirm available options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit counselling around work, caring duties or travel by removing the need to reach a clinic. They also allow for shorter check-ins or audio-only options when video is difficult, and for continuing work with a therapist while living in a different country. Registered or accredited professionals can use these approaches effectively in remote sessions, helping people build awareness and practical ways to respond to anger in everyday life.
